'be even' often refers to money.
I lost $1000 at the casino, the I won it back. I'm even.
'quits' means the end and the only common expression I can think of is "call it quits" which means the speaker has given up on the task.

@ducky1234 for example if I say "I paid for the tickets and you bought dinner so we're quits, I reckon." Could I say "we are even" then?

You would say 'we are even'. It is a common thing to say when a debt or a favor is repaid.
